Chapter 3961 The City of Gold

*************************************************** ***************************************

After the weird welcome ceremony, under the leadership of the guards, we finally met the long-awaited mermaid king Exia.

It has indeed been a long time, so long that I have completely forgotten what he looked like, I only remember the shock when his huge mountain-like body appeared in front of me, and the golden fish scales that were bigger than the house.

It should be quite valuable if you just pull off a piece. Oops, I forgot to ask Elijah if the mermaid wants to change its scales.

The Exia we see now has another appearance. It looks unchanged, like the waves of the waves. The iconic thick curly long hair and beard almost cover half of the face. She is completely human. He looked like an uncle, wearing big pants, holding a sun umbrella, lying on a beach chair, facing the sea, and there was a beautiful female mermaid waiting on him. She handed him orange juice with a smile and took a sip.

Her face is very similar to Elijah's, and her silver mermaid tail is as elegant and luxurious as a formal dress. She is particularly eye-catching. I think she is Elijah's mother. She seems to be a very rare silver mermaid, better than the evil dragon Lei. Na's silver dragon type is so advanced that I don't know where it is.

The little female dragon on the side noticed my bad intentions. Regardless of the formal occasion, she slapped my belly with her elbow, completely squeezing out the excess air in her stomach. Thank you, my whole family.

With a babble, Elijah jumped out of my arms. After enjoying some family fun with her parents, she sat on Exia's shoulders and strode towards us. Although she was in humanoid form, she was tall and strong. There was also an extremely oppressive aura coming from his body.

Just as he was nervous, the evil dragon Reina stepped forward to greet him.

"Uncle Exia."

"Oh, isn't this Rei... Reina? It's so good to see you. You've changed into a girl. Yeah, you've really changed. I really miss your [previous] look." King of Mermaids The tone seemed to pause for a moment, a bit teasing.

"Yes, Uncle Exia, I haven't seen you for a long time, and your beard is quite long." The little female dragon's head jumped, and she stared at the other party, also meaning something, and there was something in her words.

"This is not fun. If it's not fun, you'd better go and pluck your dragon, Fatty." Exia quickly covered her baby's beard, shook her head, and was the first to be defeated.

It was completely the atmosphere between old acquaintances. After talking for a while, Exia turned his attention to us. After looking at each of us, he took another look at Miss Spider, and finally fell on me.

"King Exia, long time no see." I bowed slightly.

"It's been a long time indeed." Exia took a few steps towards me. Although not huge, she was extremely strong, as if a punch could punch through the continent, giving off a terrible sense of oppression.

"Think about it carefully, it was so many years ago. I remember you were still very young at that time, but now... you are getting older. Human lifespan is really very sad."

"..."

Look, are you talking in human language? Sorry, you don’t seem to be human. That’s okay.

"I really can't compare with you." The corners of his mouth twitched, and looking at Ariya on his shoulder, the innocent smile seemed to freeze.

"Eliya often told me about you as a kind and funny father."

"Coincidentally, Aaliya often mentions you to me, saying that you are a kind and interesting man."

Although they said similar words, their faces were completely different. One had a diplomatic smile, and the other wore a mask of pain.

"I heard from Elijah that you were invited by her to attend her coming-of-age ceremony?" The Pain Mask became even more painful.

"Yes... yes, I am honored. Is there anything wrong with it? Or is there any special meaning? If it offends me, please forgive me, King Exia."

"Offended? Hehehehe." The other person grinned with white teeth. Just when the atmosphere became more and more sinister, he suddenly burst into laughter, opened his big hand and patted my shoulder affectionately again and again.

"How could it be? It's not too late to welcome you. Don't worry, it just means that Aria trusts you very much. It has no other special meaning."

I thought he would use a small trick to hit me directly into the center of the earth, but I didn't expect that it was just an ordinary force.

This King of Exia is difficult to deal with, and he has more power than his old father-in-law.

I made the definition almost instantly. If the other party has any opinions, they definitely do. Even if Dongfeng Express suddenly comes to provide service at any time, I won't be surprised.

I can understand the old father's mood very well, really.

At this time, the smiling face of King Exia only seemed more sinister and vigilant in my eyes.

"Eria, she is my precious daughter." With a huge body of nearly three meters, I could only raise my head and look into the calm eyes of King Exia.

"Actually, it would be more appropriate to hold the coming-of-age ceremony in ten or eight years, but she tried hard to convince me."

After saying such a meaningful thing to me, it seemed that he noticed that his daughter on his shoulder meant to raise a cross, and the King of Exia laughed boldly again.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this. It's rare for a distinguished guest to visit us. Please be sure to take a good look at the golden hometown that our mermaid family is proud of. I have already arranged the place to stay. Whenever you want to rest, let Elijah take you Just go.”

Having said this, he carefully held Elijah in his hands, like a treasure.

"I know that my presence will make your friends feel helpless, so the job of entertaining the guests is left to you, okay, my precious daughter."

"Eaaah!"

The little mermaid held her fork high and patted her chest, which gave the impression that she was promising to complete the task, but I always felt that she secretly meant to say, Dad has been rambling for so long and finally said something human. OK, let's go play.

Well……

"Little Rena, remember to come see me when you have time. We haven't played chess for a long time, right?"

The King of Exia looked familiar again, and said to the little dragoness, it is hard to imagine that as a golden mermaid, he would have such a deep friendship with his old father-in-law, who is the manager of the royal kitchen, so that the younger generation is like an uncle and nephew. Same.

"Give up, even if I give you four sons, you can't beat me." The evil dragon Leina smiled scornfully, with a calm and confident attitude, as if she was possessed by the Dragon King.

I'm talking about the Dragon King who started three years ago.

"What chess are you playing?" Out of curiosity, I asked.

"Five! Pieces! Chess!" The little female dragon carries the remaining power of the Dragon King and is arrogant. Every word is like a bell.

"???"

Backgammon?

Let the fourth son?

interesting.

I touched my chin and my eyes gradually became solemn.

It's time to play chess.

I thought it would be a disastrous encounter, but I didn't expect that King Exia let me go easily in the gentle breeze. If it weren't for that meaningful sigh at the end, I really thought he had looked away.

Obviously not, he may have other plans. I suspect that Elijah asked us to wait for a day in Kurast, saying that he wanted to come back first to prepare for the welcome ceremony. In fact, it was probably to come back first to have serious thoughts with his old father and to unite the front.

To put it simply, she came back to help us clear mines.

This mermaid king is much more sinister and difficult to deal with than his old father-in-law. Of course, Elijah is also more attentive and considerate than the evil dragon Lena. Instead, it is the little female dragon with a carefree personality. Who would have thought of coming back first to clear the obstacles? , maybe we just arrived, stepped on the Dongfeng Express buried in the sand, and took off on the spot.

Don't be surprised. It's just that we are unlucky, and you can't refute it, because this... is indeed a fact.

Looking back, King Exia was even waving to us with a smile on his face, which gave me a somewhat unreal feeling. I passed this level too easily, and I was afraid something big would come later.

After confirming that the other party had no intention of taking action, I withdrew my gaze and looked at the Golden City that I was gradually passing through.

Yes, the land of gold, that is, the city built on this island, or it can be regarded as the capital of the Sea Tribe, is the golden city ahead.

Although it is said to be gold, it looks like a golden mass from a distance. In fact, no matter whether it is an island or a city, it is not really made of gold, otherwise... otherwise...

Suck it, I took a sip of saliva and continued to observe.

The golden light that shrouded the entire island came from unknown sources. It was just like the light from the sun, everywhere, even...

Perhaps it was my imagination, but this unknown golden light had an extremely weak but unfathomable aura.

The island is an ordinary island, but the Golden City is not ordinary. At first glance, I thought I was back in Lugaoyin, nicknamed the City of Wealth. The large area of ​​​​city walls made of yellow stone bricks, as well as the vaguely visible city walls inside The architectural tones and styles make the title of the Golden City even more worthy of its name. From a distance, one really thinks it is a miracle made of gold.

The yellow gold-plated light can really scare some country bumpkins who have never seen the world but are greedy for money.

That’s right, this person is me! God knows a second ago I was wondering how much I could sell it for if I took down the city wall.

Even before approaching the city gate, you can already feel the bustle and bustle of people.

After all, it is the royal capital of the sea people, and the number of life in the sea is hundreds of times that on land.

Of course, not everyone is qualified to come here. The test is very simple, as long as you have feet. But it is extremely difficult for the Sea Clan to transform into a humanoid form and walk in this golden city.

As soon as I saw it, I felt like I was back in Lu Gaoyin, but if I looked carefully for a few seconds, I would soon find that this was a strange foreign land.

The crowds of people passing by are all members of the sea tribe. Even if they look like humans, they are only in human form. If you look carefully, you can observe the characteristics of the sea tribe from them. Some of them are very conspicuous, such as the human-shaped fish. Some of the guys with heads are less conspicuous, such as the gills growing under the ribs.

These sea tribes, each with different shapes but living a life that is no different from humans, make up the entire golden city.

Of course, there is actually another way for the Sea Clan to get here, even without feet.

For example, it becomes the salted fish on the chopping board. The big fish eats the small fish. There is nothing wrong with it in the ocean. Elijah also eats fish, although she loves fruits more, especially the ones I give her.

In the sea, the sea people can be roughly divided into two types, one is those who have combat power and produce intelligence, and the other is... food.

Under the leadership of Elijah, we successfully passed through the city gate and officially entered this golden city, which is full of splendor and splendor...
